  Louisa May Alcott, born on November 29, 1832, was a 19th century American novelist best known as author of the novel Little Women and its sequels Little Men and Jo's Boys. Raised by her transcendentalist parents, Abigail May Alcott and Amos Bronson Alcott in New England, she grew up among many of the well-known intellectuals of the day such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Henry David Thoreau. Nevertheless, her family suffered severe financial difficulties and Alcott worked to help support the family from an early age. She began to receive critical success for her writing in the 1860s. She was also an aficionado of “blood and thunder tales,” short, sensational stories (like “Lost in a Pyramid, or The Curse of the Mummy) that she could sell to magazines. She found them easier to write than something as detailed as a novel. Early in her career, she sometimes used the pen name A. M. Barnard. She passed from the picture on March 6, 1888.  Narrator Edward E. French is an Oscar nominated (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country) Special Makeup FX Artist. Contact Email edwardfrench06@hotmail.com.

  Discover the hilariously prophetic sci-fi masterpiece 'Project Hush' by William Tenn in this captivating new audiobook. Join the U.S. Army's top-secret mission to construct a military base on the Moon—where meticulous plans meet cosmic chaos. Tenn's razor-sharp satire of military bureaucracy feels eerily relevant today as harried Colonel "Hard-Head" Harrison faces impossible deadlines, bewildered scientists, and the absurdity of applying earthbound logic to lunar challenges. Narrated with perfect comic timing, this audiobook brings to life Tenn's brilliant blend of humor and insight into human folly. Originally published in 1954, 'Project Hush' remains a timeless commentary on organizational dysfunction and humanity's eternal struggle with the unknown. Listen now and experience one of science fiction's most delightful short stories as you've never heard it before.

  Ring Around The Sun by Isaac Asimov - Hell in reverse temperature–that’s what Jimmy and Roy were going through in their little space-ship! Tricked into the dangerous trip, ironic fate caused them to freeze at 40 below, though they were almost in the sun! 
  Jimmy Turner was humming merrily, if a bit raucously, when he entered the reception room. 
  "Is Old Sourpuss in?" he asked, accompanying the question with a wink at which the pretty secretary blushed gratefully. 
  "He is; and waiting for you." She motioned him towards the door on which was written in fat, black letters, "Frank McCutcheon, General Manager, United Space Mail." 
  Jim entered. "Hello, Skipper, what now?" 
  McCutcheon stared at him from under bushy gray eyebrows. "Old Sourpuss," as he was euphoniously known to all members of United Space Mail, had never been known to laugh within the memory of the oldest inmate, though rumor did have it that when a child he had smiled at the sight of his father falling out of an apple-tree. Right now his expression made the rumor appear exaggerated.

  Since brute force won’t work, Jack must turn to guile to exploit the enemy’s weaknesses. Only then can he achieve victory without a tremendous loss of human life. And that’s before an unexpected complication threatens to undo everything they’ve accomplished and plunge the cluster back into brutal war with an enemy determined to exterminate or enslave them.
   
  Confronted by stronger enemies, Jack has to turn their strength against them. Somehow.
